Overview of the NEV Taxi Market in China

In Chinese cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Xi’an, PM2.5 (particles with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 μm) air pollution is a major concern. The concentration levels of PM2.5 in all these cities exceed WHO air quality guidelines. The report points out that to reduce pollution across the nation as well as dependence on foreign oil imports, the Chinese government has been offering high subsidies on the purchase of new energy vehicles. National and regional price subsidies on NEV taxis, with special reference to key cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangdong have been discussed in the report. The government has also started NEV taxi fleets, which will fuel the growth of the market.
